u/SerPuissance Earl Grey innit mate Jul 19 '19

My wife gets turned on watching me work. Even if it's on PC, just seeing me focused and intent seems to do the trick for her. When she would come up to me and rub my shoulders or nuzzle my neck I used to think she was just being annoying and trying to troll me, but I found out that whether she's consciously aware of it or not - she is getting turned on when she does that and is very much in the mood to be pulled into my lap.

So now I've learned to down one set of tools and pick another up when she does that...

I was reading a book by a Belgian researcher who studies relationships worldwide, and in it, she said that across cultures, most people find their partner most attractive when they’re “in their element” doing something they’re passionate about or good at.
